    I didn’t think so, but it seemed to explain some quirks, so I never looked into it.

    There is a massive difference when we say the Asperger's word. Everything from full on Rain Man to people like myself, that can mask behavior via therapy 80-95% of the time.

    Having read his biography and buying Twitter in 2022, I'm convinced he is lost. The first symptoms were evident during Covid. Sad to see brilliant technical skills lost to the madness.

    If by evident symptoms at covid - means because he (like many) didn't trust the vaccine, then there's a lot of crazy people in the nation .... including a lot of nurses that were willing to lose their job ... & immunologists that lost their reputation, as twitter & Facebook (directed by the feds - per admissions by Zuckerberg) elevated the "thought" as disinformation. Free speech means that you dialogue it out, not repress one viewpoint. And thus the viewpoint police were thrown out of office - in part because Musk did his part to free Twitter from one-sided viewpoints. If opening free speech is wrong, I Don't wana be Right

    All truth goes through three phases. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as self-evident.
    That says it all really, all the anti vaxxers I've met over this side are a breed of there own. I blame A I search engine personalisation for a lot of it. If you don't believe you are being led down a rabbit hole of B/S, scroll to the bottom of the search page and you'll find a line that allows you to switch off personalisation ...... First, you have to question why such a thing is there and automatically switch on to start with ..... if you can handle that, then you might be open minded enough to accept that all you have read in the past might be B/S, so it might be worth going back to where it all began and asking the search engine a none bias loaded question about the topic and reading the results .... are they the same as the results that lead you down the rabbit hole to start with?

    EV's in general, or Tesla sales exclusively? Tesla isn't doing very well in China at the moment, and it's getting worse. I can see a future where Elon walks away from the Tesla vehicle side and pours more spin into the other Tesla/Elon linked products that push the share price even higher ..... sort of like he is doing now, actually ........

    Keep in mind, Elon doesn't do anything with his own money, it is all borrowed financial institution money, borrowed against an unrealistic stock price projecting an unrealistic net worth leveraging his stock holding at current stock prices as collateral ...... don't believe they could be that naive, anyone hear of the financial crash and what caused it? Elon won't be held accountable for this ponzi-scheme ... he has political protection ... well, he believes he has ... US history doesn't show buying favours during an election actually helps in the long term, does it? Are we already seeing signs of this?

    Tesla sales are down in the US, EV market share increased.
    Tesla sales are down in Europe, EV market share increased.

    Tesla sales in China are up, EV market share is also up. The Model Y was the best selling car in China, and the world.
    The increased sales in China almost made up for the loss in the US and Europe.

    Elon’s energy certainly doesn’t seem to be focused on Tesla. This may be why they got away with adding the turn signal stalk back to the new Model Y;)
